Chapter 258 Conditional Exchange (2)

Just now, when he heard the eunuch say that Zhao Dongting intended to collect taxes by force, he was always interested in this issue.

"this……"

Lu Xiufu and the others were all stunned.

As civil officials, they did not expect this in a hurry.

The nobles of Leizhou have been running Leizhou for many years, and have been intricately involved in the lifeblood of all walks of life in Leizhou. When they are in conflict with them, it is really possible that even the army will change. Most of the soldiers in the Huanglong Imperial Army are from Leizhou, and their relationship with those nobles is complicated.

Moving the nobles can be said to have a single hair that can move the whole body.

Zhao Dongting also pondered, realizing that he might have thought this matter too simply.

The Southern Song Dynasty has not experienced many twists and turns today.

However, although he was worried about the change in Leizhou, he wanted to remove the cancer of the nobles. If he wanted the people to be willing, he would have to improve the status of the people. If these nobles did not bow their heads at this time, and wanted them to bow their heads in the future and implement the new policy, it would be even more difficult.

Finally, he sighed and said, "Since that's the case, then we will summon the local nobles from Leizhou to the palace tomorrow. I will discuss with them!"

He thought, could he try to pull it slowly in a gentle way, just like boiling a frog in warm water.

If those nobles can be persuaded without using force, everyone will be happy.

Lu Xiufu and others had no good ideas, so they nodded.

Zhao Dongting thought about it, looked at Liu Hongyi again and said, "But General Liu, you are still ready. If they are unwilling to cooperate with my new policy, then I would rather risk the turbulence of the country than pull them out. I can't say that I should take any thunderous measures at the time."

"yes!"

Liu Hongyi's eyes were slightly stern.

He felt Zhao Dongting's determination. If the nobles were unwilling to cooperate, they would probably face a major change in the army.

Zhao Dongting is quite iron-fisted in some aspects.

Afterwards, everyone discussed it carefully for a while, and Lu Xiufu, Liu Hongyi and others left.

Zhao Dongting sat alone in the courtyard and thought about how to persuade the nobles tomorrow when they met those nobles. He also planned to meet Yang Shufei tomorrow morning and talk about the matter of taking the concubine.

But at this time, Ying'er, who had originally gone to the Empress Dowager's bedroom to accompany Concubine Yang Shu, came back crying.

Zhao Dongting was shocked by her even more swallowing sounds. Seeing her wandering look with pear blossoms in the rain, he felt a little strange, "Yinger, what's wrong?"

Apart from the occasional missing family, he has never seen Ying Er cry.

Ying Er didn't answer.

Zhao Dongting wiped away her tears and said, "If you suffer any grievances, just tell me, I will make the decision for you. Could it be that you still regard me as an outsider?"

Ying'er looked up, looked at Zhao Dongting sadly, and said, "Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager will marry her servant to the grandson of the Supervision Order."

Supervision Order?

Zhang Shijie's grandson?

Zhao Dongting was slightly surprised, "How could the Empress Dowager suddenly have such an idea?"

As soon as he said it, he knew it himself.

This is afraid that Mo is the way for Concubine Yang Shu to force the marriage.

Although since the court was in trouble, Concubine Yang Shu often gave the palace maids to be wives and concubines to the descendants of the ministers and grandchildren, she had never given the emperor's personal maids. Because these personal maids would inevitably become the emperor's women in the future, this is the rule.

Zhao Dongting couldn't help but fall silent.

If he didn't accept the concubine, Yang Shu's concubine might be able to do something false and betroth Ying Er to Zhang Shijie's grandson.

Then, he suddenly showed joy and said, "I will go to see the Queen Mother now."

He originally resisted Concubine Yang Shuchang constantly forcing him to get married, but now, he hopes that Concubine Yang Shu's heart will be as urgent as possible.

After saying that, Zhao Dongting took Le Wuchen and several eunuchs to Yang Shufei's bedroom.

Ying Er noticed the joy on Zhao Dongting's face, but felt sad in her heart.

Does the emperor just want me to marry outside the palace?

When he arrived outside Yang Shufei's bedroom, Zhao Dongting asked the eunuch to go in and report to Yang Shufei.

This time, Concubine Yang Shu didn't let him be turned away again. The eunuch soon ran out and invited him in.

When she arrived in the room, Concubine Yang was sitting on the bed with a calm face, "Why did you come at this time?"

Zhao Dongting knew that she was deliberately waiting for her to speak, pretended to be anxious, and said bluntly: "Mom wants to marry Ying'er to the grandson of the Supervision Order?"

Concubine Yang Shu said: "Yes, this matter was mentioned by the supervisory order. Maybe he would ask the emperor for marriage in the morning tomorrow!"

Zhao Dongting smiled bitterly, "Mom, stop making trouble. Ying'er is my personal maid. How could the supervision order propose to her for his grandson?"

Concubine Yang showed a little unhappy expression and said, "Yes, since you don't want to get married, you can't delay Ying'er's great years? Yinger is now nineteen years old. At this age, you still don't let her get married out of the palace. Do you really plan to keep her in the palace forever and be an old girl?"

Zhao Dongting was stunned.

This is not a show, but a real stunned.

He suddenly realized that he had never thought about the feelings of Ying Er and the others before. As a personal maid, Ying Er should be very willing to marry him, right?

What would she think when she resisted the concubine?

Zhao Dongting couldn't help but feel a little guilty, guilt towards Ying Er.

Ying Er cared for him meticulously, but he even ignored her feelings. This time, he even planned to use Ying Er.

Yes, he planned to take advantage of the matter of taking concubines and ask Concubine Yang to promise him that he wanted to make Lechan the queen.

Although the matter with Lechan has not yet settled, he vowed to marry her as his queen. And this means that he must pass the level of Yang Shufei.

Le Chan came from an ordinary family and did not have the consent of Concubine Yang Shu. Zhao Dongting wanted to make her the queen, but she had to be subject to many constraints.

At this time, Yang Shufei said again: "Wei Niang heard that the girl Le Wu had an engagement. Since this is the case, it is not suitable to stay in the palace as a slave. I will send her back to the palace tomorrow! Yun Jin was born very beautifully, and there were younger generations in the Chinese military families in the court who admired her. Wei Niang also planned to choose a good husband for her and marry her out of the palace. This would not delay her great years, but also win over the relationship between the ministers and the royal family. It would be a good thing."

She intentionally "sends away all the women around Zhao Dongting..." and pushes Zhao Dongting to the extreme.

Zhao Dongting's eyes slowly gathered, staring at Yang Shufei, "The Empress Dowager really wants to force the child like this?"

Concubine Yang sighed and said, "It's not that I'm forcing you for my mother, but does the emperor have the heart to continue to let them wait like this? How many years can they wait?"

"good!"

Zhao Dongting suddenly emphasized, "Then I will take Ying Er as my concubine."

"Um?"
